    Maybe people would stop saying that China invading Taiwan is imminent if China stopped dickwagging for a few minutes. But no… they just encircle the island and do live fire exercises.

      What’s weird, is that all think USA will invade Venezuella and it’s normal, feels normal, perceived as normal. Many countries are gonna support it too…

      I don’t say it to backup China, Russia or anyone. But it’s weird the bias towards invasions.

      If France would invade a country, would not feel the same as if Iran did the same.

        I’m in the US. I don’t think this feels “normal” at all. It’s fucked up. As is US threatening Canada and Greenland. And all the other shit that’s too numerous to mention.

        Aggressors can fuck off.

        This is exactly my point. Relative to the other countries it is compared to, who have both actively invaded other countries for the past decade plus, China is non-aggressive. It detracts from addressing their actual issues while also trying to serve as a casus belli for the US, the known aggressive superpower.
